Chapter 727 Do Your Best

Chapter 727 Do your best

The weather is getting colder and colder, so naturally there are more and more things that Zhu Yunyou, the emperor, needs to care about. Letting the people of the Ming Dynasty have enough food and clothing are also what he hopes to see. Although the national strength of the Ming Dynasty has been increasing in recent years, he also knows that there are still some people in the world who are not full and some people who are not warm-wearing.

Especially in winter, it is even more difficult for some people. There is not much food source and there is not much cold-proofing supplies. Zhu Yunyou knows these things and is trying hard to change them.

After reading the memorial for a day, Zhu Yunyou calmed down and headed straight to the Ganqing Palace.

This time in the Ganqing Palace were Zhu Shi, the eighteenth son of Lao Zhu and Zhu Song, the 20th son of Zhu Song. They are brothers of their country and the age difference is only one year. These two uncles, one is three years younger than Zhu Yunyou and the other is four years younger, but their seniority is there.

"Uncle Emperor." Zhu Yunyou was happy when he arrived at the Ganqing Palace, "If I say that Uncle Eighteen was punished, we would admit it. Why is Uncle Twenty?"

Zhu Song is not simple. He is cautious, smart and agile, well-read and well-versed in history. He can be said to be one of the best readers in the royal family of the Ming Dynasty. Moreover, he is not a nerd. Old Master, being a person is also quite interesting and interesting.

As for Zhu Shi, although he has not had much evil deeds, he probably meets the prince whom many people recognize. He is a little bit arrogant and has some minor bad deeds. The most important thing is that he has never been able to become a vassal, and he has often complained about it in private over the years.

Lao Zhu sighed and said, "It's your uncle. We were busy with the government and neglected to discipline us in the early years. If you do things down-to-earth, he won't be able to do it. After reading a few books, he will talk nonsense to others."

Xiao Xiao Zhu immediately said, "The Twenty Prince interprets ancient books, which is a joke, and I have reported it to others."

"If you want to say it, it's probably because you're talking nonsense!" Zhu Yunyou pulled Zhu Song up and said, "Report? It's a blessing that I can think of it! We still like to talk to Uncle Twenty. We and Uncle Twenty also like to explain the classics the most."

Old Zhu probably remembered something and said, "That's right, that's it, you like to talk nonsense. You are still a little bit sensible, just telling some jokes in front of people close to you. He is better, and he just talks nonsense after drinking some wine. He is so good that he is so good when talking nonsense!"

"Okay, it's not a big deal." Zhu Yunyou laughed, patted Zhu Song's shoulder and said, "Grandpa Emperor is old and doesn't know how to be funny. But Uncle Twenty looked back and checked. What kind of bastards are so unspoken and can't tell the jokes. If there is a banquet in the future, don't bring those people."

Zhu Song said with a bitter face, "Your Majesty, we must be the King of Tang. We pestered us a few days ago, but we couldn't erase our face and took him there. He just drank a little, told some jokes and took it seriously."

Old Zhu immediately became angry and gritted his teeth, "If you don't say this, we can't remember it. How old are your brothers? You took him to the brothel pleasure boat? We can't understand it. You guys like that pickled place so much?"

Zhu Yunyou lowered his head and didn't know what to say. Some of the high-end brothel pleasure boats in the Ming Dynasty were regular customers and nobles. If not, his younger brother probably wouldn't be surprised if it was a super VIP of many brothel pleasure boats.

Liu Yong was talented, and he didn't need to spend money to go to those places. Many famous prostitutes were willing to support him, just to get a devil and make him famous. On the Ming Dynasty, although His Highness of the King of Wu was not talented, he had a status. If he thought it was good, he would definitely have the potential of a courtesan.

Zhu Yunyou also felt speechless. King Zhu Yu of Tang was only fifteen and had not yet started a family. But now, there is no princess, but there is one concubine. What's even more deadly is that he likes to go to brothel pleasure boats. He either pesters the emperor's brother or follows a nephew like Zhu Yunyou to gain knowledge and doesn't care about his identity at all.

Xiao Xiaozhu remembered something and said, "Uncle Second seemed to have beaten local officials in Yangzhou in the early years, and it seems to have something to do with brothels in those places."

Lao Zhu said angrily, "Your second uncle, do you think you are a good person? You were better in the early years. Although you were not a good person, you were still doing well at least. He punished his subordinates casually in Yangzhou in the early years. We were quite happy to do something for your father. Look at him for years, he only cared about eating, drinking and having fun."

"The second uncle is too. He was brave in the early years and even beaten the officials and knew to go to Peking to find our father." Xiaoxiao Zhu said seriously, "It's not possible now. We remember that he had someone to write a poem a few days ago, saying it was his poem."

Zhu Song looked at Zhu Yunyou and whispered, "The King of Wu also said that His Majesty gave him some excellent works, and he did not want to show them to others easily. Last time, there was a courtesan who was also a little famous. The King of Wu asked her to go to the King of Wu's mansion, saying that he wanted to appreciate His Majesty's new masterpieces, so he would keep it in a house outside."

Zhu Yunyou opened his mouth and then sighed deeply. It was not surprising that his younger brother did such a thing. After all, he was also a woman in the house before he married the princess, and even almost made an illegitimate child.

Over the years, I have not done anything like robbing a private girl. But if you want to say it, there are not many courtesans who have a lot of romantic affairs with His Royal Highness the King of Wu. Even if Zhu Yunyou cares more about his younger brother, he sometimes doesn't understand the situation.

Because that guy Zhu Yunyu is really not clear about some courtesans, of course, it may also be some courtesans or people who are interested in making a name for themselves, so they also have the meaning of "taking advantage of the popularity".

Even some talented women are real talented women, and some young ladies from scholarly families are not clear about Zhu Yunyu. Maybe because they want to climb higher, even if they are just for concubines, they may be able to get the status of a concubine, and the children they give birth to can become princes. They have face compared to some ordinary officials.

Furthermore, the King of Wu was favored, which was also something that everyone in the world knew. It was really a good opportunity to climb over to the King of Wu. Of course, relying on a brother who could write poetry as the emperor, Zhu Yunyu was quite proficient in cheating and cheating. I don’t know how many times he boasted outside.

If you want to see the emperor's masterpiece, you can only go to the King of Wu's Mansion. Once you go to the King of Wu's Mansion, this clear voice may be hard to say.

Zhu Song looked at Lao Zhu and said with a pleasing voice, "Father, my son also knows that Your Majesty is so talented."

Lao Zhu was a little proud and not humble, "The emperor has a talent for poetry. After reading a few books, everyone outside said that you have some talent. What is that? If the emperor had not been responsible for the country, he would have been a talented man who had been famous all over the world, and it would be no problem to pass the imperial examination."

Speaking of which, Zhu Yunyou was also embarrassed. He just "wrote" two poems, one of which is Nalan Xingde's "Mulanhua·Music Jue Ci" by Cambodia. Although Zhu Yunyou did not admit it, who doesn't know that the hero Zhu can only be the son of today.

Many people say that it was because His Majesty was touched on the Lantern Festival. He borrowed the allusion of Ban Jieyu's abandonment and the love tragedy between Emperor Xuanzong of Tang and Yang Guifei, and wrote a poem with a sad style, fluent language, and full of philosophical thoughts.

Some people also say that it seems to be the love of children, but it is actually written for "old friends". It was because His Majesty had no one around him after he ascended the throne, and the various changes of some old ministers made His Majesty a little sad and disappointed.

Another poem was originally Gong Zizhen's "Miscellaneous Poems of Ji Hai·Quo", which has been interpreted countless times. Now this is written by Your Majesty in his early years. Your Majesty has the feelings of the world as soon as he was young. And it was at that time that the poems that Your Majesty spoke were discovered by everyone.

Lao Zhu seemed to be a little expectant, and looked at Zhu Yunyou and said, "We know that you don't want people in the world to think that they can be good officials if they can recite poems and write them right. But we also think that as long as you are not obsessed with this, you will be successful. You don't need to hide it if you have the ability. The poems we wrote in the early years are not as good as you. If we see your grandmother, we should explain to her that she taught you to read and read."

Zhu Yunyou thought for a while and said, "That's what the emperor said, we will write poems. When I see the emperor's grandmother, I will remember to say good things. We could have dreamed of the emperor's grandmother in the early years, but she may not have thought about our grandson in the past two years."

Lao Zhu said, "Let's remember to talk to her then."

Zhu Song and the others dare not say anything at this time. There are some topics that the princes are hard to talk about and dare not talk about.

Zhu Yunyou did not have this awareness and said, "We had ambitions in the early years, thinking that we could have thousands of houses to shelter all the poor people in the world. Now that we are getting colder today, we have been tinkering with coal stoves and planting a lot of cotton over the years, which seems to have made some people warmer in winter."

Old Zhu immediately became proud and said, "We know! At that time, you were not as old as the prince, and you were thinking about the people of the world. Now when you saw those shaking coal balls in Yingtian Mansion and looking at the coal stoves, we told the prince that they were all made by you."

Xiao Xiaozhu also became proud. The coal stoves were made by his father. Xiao Xiaozhu had said these things a long time ago. Not only did his great-grandfather tell him that his uncle, aunt, and his mother also told him. They also knew that when his father made these, he was five or six years old.

So when people use coal stoves to boil water and vegetables, Xiao Xiaozhu is also proud. When they see people shaking coal balls around the streets and some government offices sell coal, Xiao Xiaozhu is also very proud. These are all the achievements of his father.

Zhu Shi and Zhu Song looked at each other. They had heard of these things, and there was no need to hide them. This was only beneficial to the people's voice today. Love the people as if they were young. This was like the people.

Of course, in some of the current stories, Empress Xiaoci lamented the difficulties of people's livelihood and educated and guided the Emperor Changsun at that time. It was also because of gratitude to the Emperor's grandmother. His Highness, His Highness, worked hard to perfect the coal stove and coal balls in order to fulfill the Emperor's grandmother's last wish.

These things are still very necessary, and today's image is established through such things.

Premature wisdom is actually a trivial matter, because when today Zi was young, he cared for the world and loved the people as much as his son. It was also the kindness of Empress Xiaoci, because her teaching made His Majesty care more about the people. Of course, this place also established the image of being pure filial to Zi today.

These things are not small things. A good image and reputation are very important to the emperor. Especially not long after the founding of the country, the Ming Dynasty needed to win over the hearts of the people. Some things are not enough to rely on having a knife in their hands.

Xiao Xiaozhu is very eye-catching. He actually always wanted to see his father write poems.

He hurriedly directed Wang Chengen and Shuangquan's pen, ink, paper and inkstone. Such an opportunity was very rare. The next time he asked his father to plan to write poems, it might be difficult, that is, the great-grandfather could let his father let go.

Seeing Xiao Xiao Zhu holding the brush seriously, Zhu Yunyou said to Lao Zhu, "I don't plan to hide this little thought."

Lao Zhu also became happy. The poem that was passed down from outside was written by Zhu Ruyi. So the crown prince was not very happy, so this time he was going to write the poem.

Lao Zhu smiled and said, "It's true, I'll bring this poem to Xiaoling. At that time, your grandmother will definitely be happy. Your grandmother will definitely be happy with the poem you wrote and the words written by your prince."

Zhu Yunyou nodded and said, "That's true. The emperor and grandmother may not necessarily like gold, silver, jewelry, poetry, calligraphy and painting. She must be the happiest to see her children and grandchildren have a bright future."

Lao Zhu nodded with a smile. He knew his wife, who was a person who didn't care much about pleasure. She was happy if her children and grandchildren had a promising future. She always cared about the education of her children. So let alone the second child, the third child had some bad deeds, and which of the children taught by their mother herself was not really capable?

If descendants have a promising future and have abilities, this is much more important than gold, silver and jewelry. These abilities cannot be taken away by others. No matter how many gold, silver and jewelry are, they can be spent. If you have real skills, you don’t need to worry.

Zhu Yunyou looked at Xiaoxiao Zhu and said, "Write it well, and you will take this word for your great-grandmother to read it."

Xiao Xiaozhu nodded vigorously, and he naturally knew these things.

Zhu Yunyou spoke slowly and said, "The rolling Yangtze River flows eastward, and the waves wash away all the heroes. The right and wrong, success and failure turn into nothing. The green mountains are still there, and the sunset is red for several times."

When the others were stunned, Zhu Yunyou continued, "The white-haired fisherman and woodcutter are used to watching the autumn moon and spring breeze. A pot of turbid wine is happy to meet each other. How many things happen in ancient and modern times are all laughing."

Old Zhu was stunned for a moment and suddenly laughed, "Okay, let's take this to your grandmother, she will definitely be happy!"

Zhu Song was also a little excited. Today's poem is probably the best in the world. This poem that uses the words to express life's feelings through the rise and fall of history, which are implicit in boldness, and deep in high pitch.

The most important thing is that it is most suitable for the father, in Yingtian Prefecture and in the Yangtze River, the father laid the foundation. The rise and fall of all dynasties and the century of life were described all at once.

Zhu Yunyou smiled and said, "This word should be the most suitable word for Grandpa Emperor. Let's be shameless."

Old Zhu looked at Zhu Yunyou proudly and said, "Our grandson is amazing, the emperor can do it, and the talented man can do it!"

His grandson is always so outstanding. As long as he wants, he can do anything the best!
